Vincent Halligan, a Wexford truck driver, was remanded in custody after appearing at Dublin District Court in connection with the seizure of about 10kg of suspected heroin, estimated to be worth €1.5 million. He and Joseph O’Neill were charged with unlawfully possessing heroin and possessing it for sale or supply.

Neither man applied for bail. The court was told they made no reply when the charges were put to them, and they had not indicated how they intended to plead. They were due to appear at Cloverhill District Court on Tuesday.
